/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A proposal to withdraw snipers from contact line
was accepted both by Armenian and NKR leaders. The same can’t be said
for Azeri leaders, MG OSCE Russian Co-Chair Yuri Merzlyakov told a
news conference in Yerevan.
In his turn, French Co-Chair Bernard Fassier noted that the mediators
haven’t yet managed to reach agreement with Azeri leaders. "Still,
we hope Azeri authorities will agree to withdraw snipers from contact
line, which is one of the most important conditions for security
provision," Fassier emphasized.
On December 4, 2008, 3 Foreign Ministers of MG OSCE member states
proposed to withdraw snipers from contact line to increase mutual
trust.
